Jewish Political Voices Project: The State of Truth in America
Impeachment reveals voters’ views on truth—and much more.
Lynne Toporov (FL): ‘I Think Trump Truly Cares’
I think it was a big waste of our time and money. They really don’t have anything against him
Harvey “Svi” Shapiro (NC): ‘We Will Need a Return to a Belief in Truth and Facts’
I am struggling in my preference between my wish for a truly progressive Democratic candidate
Hannah Rosenthal (WI): ‘Most People Believe Trump Is a Crook, Narcissist and Liar’
I am old enough to have now watched three impeachment inquiries and what is on display
Michael Ginsberg (VA): ‘I Don’t See Trump as Different From the Democrats in Their Dishonesty’
I think the irony in all of this is if the Democrats hadn’t spent three years bleating non-stop for impeachment
Miriam Laing (FL): ‘A Certain Degree of Dishonesty Is Inevitable’
A certain degree of dishonesty is inevitable in part because candidates are human beings.
Stuart Baum (MI): ‘The General Election Will Be Won on Turnout’
I think that they probably hurt his chances for re-election because the hearings will likely wear down his less-secure supporters
Stephanie Wudarski (PA): ‘Our Institutions Have Finally Started to Fight Back’
Sad and angry. The way this historic candidate was critiqued in the media as compared
Sandy Mallin (NV): ‘I Don’t Even Know What Honesty Is Anymore’
His campaign promises are being fulfilled—the economy is great and our reputation around the world is stronger now.
Robert Schwebel (AZ): ‘The Republicans’ Intransigence Has Surprised Me’
I think many Republicans may agree with Democrats about the improper actions.
Janice Weiner (IA): ‘How Can They Sleep at Night?’
When people are able to admit they have made a mistake or learned, that is a sign of integrity
Andrew Smith (OH): ‘It’s Not a Dispute About the Facts’
The hearings were entirely boring and, from what I have gathered, a rather one-sided series
